I have a Warehouse Hobbies Gator with a 25cc watercooled head, and a Quad-Exhaust. I was wondering if you can put in two water pumps, both running from the crank case, if this is possible, would you tell me how to do this.
Thanks in advance,
Josh

Are you having a cooling problem??
Yes, you can do it. However, keep in mind that an extra pump will eat up some of the motor's pulses that are currently used to cool itself.
Order a second water pump from WarehouseHobbies.Com for about $30 (they also have a mount for it for $5). You will also need a vaccuum hose "T" fitting avail from the automotive store. Be sure that it's safe to use with gasoline.
Cut and install the "T" fitting between the crankcase fitting and the original pump's pulse fitting... and plug your new pump's "pulse" hose into the "T". Plumb your new water lines as you like.
Hope this helps!!

OH and one more thing...
Be sure to do a good job connecting any of those hoses that are leading to the "T" and the engine's crankcase. ANY leaks, pinholes, or disconnections will cause an air leak for the engine, and this will change the air/fuel mixture for the worse... leaning out your engine and if it doesn't stall on you, it could burn up out on the water.:eek:
